Honkai Impact 3rd, Paradise Typewriter isn't for making this kind of game.

Padofelis took the can from the spout, opened the envelope, and began to read it carefully.

"Hmm... Preparing for the party... This is indeed a very important matter, and we need to inform everyone as soon as possible."

But suddenly, Padofelis thought of something.

Since it's a gala....

Should we dress formally and solemnly?

Padofelis looked down at her clothes, wondering if she should first go to Sister Eden to have an evening gown custom-made.

"Meow~"

"What? Canned food? You want clothes too? But you're just a cat!"

"Meow!"

"Hmm...okay, okay, I got it. How about I have Sister Eden make you a cat-themed gentleman's outfit too?"

Pado pondered for a moment and then made a decision.

First, go to Sister Eden to order clothes.

I just hope Eden isn't drinking, otherwise it might take a long time to wake her up...

Then notify the others.

Before Snake Sister could react...

Padoflis, clutching the can, tiptoed away from Dr. Möbius's residence.

Meanwhile, Xia Yuan was completely unaware that he had already been secretly watched by Dr. Mebius.

on the street,

A tired girl with red pigtails was walking unsteadily down the road.

As they passed by the tent, Xia Yuan spotted it by chance.

"Dr. Tesla?"

Xia Yuan approached the girl and greeted Dr. Tesla.

Upon seeing Xia Yuan, Dr. Tesla seemed to use his last bit of strength to wave and say, "It's Xia Yuan. I'm sorry, I really don't have the energy to help you write code and modify the mechanical assistant today. I'm just too tired. It's all that wretched 'messy hair's fault!"

"Hiccup~"

Dr. Tesla clenched his left hand.

Since losing the bet with Einstein, she has been working tirelessly in the laboratory for almost a week.

Deep dark circles under his eyes, like two panda eyes, were evenly distributed on both sides of Dr. Tesla's eye sockets.

Looking at the red-haired twin-tailed girl in front of him, swaying precariously...

Xia Yuan quickly helped Dr. Tesla up as he was about to lose his balance.

But after helping Dr. Tesla up, Xia Yuan smelled a strange odor.

"This smells like alcohol?!"

"Dr. Tesla, you've been drinking again?"

Xia Yuan couldn't help but ask.

"What do you mean you've been drinking again? I finally finished the experiment, of course I need to relax. I still have some here, Xia Yuan, come and have a drink with me!"

Dr. Tesla picked up the bottle and invited Xia Yuan to drink.

Drinking in broad daylight...

It seems that Dr. Tesla can no longer distinguish between night and morning.

"No, Dr. Tesla, I still need to sell game cartridges right now, so I can't drink alcohol."

Xia Yuan decisively rejected Dr. Tesla.

He snatched the bottle from her hand; he had witnessed the girl's strange behavior and actions when she was drunk.

"A game cartridge?" Dr. Tesla pondered for a moment. "Does the game contain any scenes of beating up a chicken coop?"

"Absolutely not!"

"Okay, give me five servings. I want to beat Ai Yin up in the game to vent my anger!"

The girl held up five fingers to Xia Yuan.

"I already said there was no such content!"

Xia Yuan sighed and prepared to send Dr. Tesla back to her residence. Letting her go back alone in such a drunken state might cause any trouble.

"Dr. Tesla, you're drunk. I'll take you home."

"No, I'm not drunk!"

At this moment, Dr. Tesla, like a child throwing a tantrum, left Xia Yuan's side and ran ahead on his own.

See? I won't get drunk!

As if trying to prove itself, it kept spinning in circles.

But after a while, Dr. Tesla, who had put his hands on his hips and insisted that he was not drunk, collapsed to the ground.

ZZZ——

Seeing that Dr. Tesla had fainted, Xia Yuan had no choice but to rush over and hold the unconscious Dr. Tesla in his arms.

Xia Yuan didn't expect this either...

Dr. Tesla is quite heavy.

After much effort, Xia Yuan finally managed to settle Dr. Tesla inside the tent.

Just as Xia Yuan was gently wiping the girl's face with a damp towel, Dr. Einstein's voice came from behind him again.

"Is that Bishop Theresa of Destiny?"

"I am Dr. Einstein. I have discovered a suspicious girl suspected of being abducted outside a strange tent near the Sky City Plaza. The girl is very likely Dr. Tesla, who has been missing for a week. Please dispatch an S-rank Valkyrie to my current location as soon as possible."

"S-Class Valkyrie!"

Upon hearing Ai Yin's words, Xia Yuan quickly turned around.

He snatched Ai-in's communicator, intending to explain to Theresa that he was not a suspect in abducting girls!

The suspect is none other than Dr. Einstein himself!

Chapter Thirty-Six: Suspect Mr. Xia Yuan

But when Xia Yuan got the communicator, he discovered that it was not turned on at all.

"Aiyin, is it fun to bully me?!"

"How could that be, Mr. Xia Yuan, the suspect? I didn't even realize you took my communicator just now, and when I returned here, I quietly avoided passing bystanders."

In other words, I am now completely powerless to resist.

"Mr. Xia Yuan, you could easily drag me, who has no chance of resisting, into the tent and do what you were doing to Dr. Tesla earlier."

Dr. Einstein analyzed his current situation in a very serious manner.

"I would never do something so strange!"

Xia Yuan pulled Einstein into the tent, wanting her to open her eyes wide and see clearly.

I really was just...

He was simply wiping the sweat from the face of Dr. Tesla, who was already completely drunk and unconscious.

"Record... Although Mr. Xia Yuan said no, your body very consciously pulled me into the tent. In your series of actions just now, at least 10% of your consciousness showed an acceptance of my suggestion."

Dr. Einstein untied the red scarf from his coat.

"Just now, when I took off my scarf, this thought increased to about 15%. Mr. Xia Yuan, do you have anything else to explain?"

Before Xia Yuan could even speak...

Dr. Einstein then tossed his black coat onto Dr. Tesla, who was lying down.

"And now, this thought has increased to 30%, accompanied by hormone secretion, adrenaline, and a faster heartbeat... Suspect Xia Yuan, all the evidence now points to you."

Ai Yin pointed at Xia Yuan.

It was as if it were proclaiming Xia Yuan's crimes and the trial he was about to face.

"It would be abnormal if we didn't have it!"

It's all because of you, Ai Yin, who's been misleading me all this time. Stop playing detective games!

"Fine... since you're here, Ai-yin, please take Dr. Tesla back with you and don't bother me anymore while I'm selling game cartridges."

Xia Yuan was forced to compromise.

He waved at Dr. Einstein as if shooing away a squirrel.

“Hey, Mr. Xia Yuan, you can actually continue what you were doing to Dr. Tesla. Even after Dr. Tesla wakes up, I will not reveal anything to him. I can sign a confidentiality agreement.”

Ai Yin even produced an agreement in a very professional manner.

Xia Yuan looked at Dr. Tesla with heartache, silently mourning for having a "good friend" like Ai Yin for a second.

When they saw that Dr. Einstein had actually signed his name on that strange confidentiality agreement...

Xia Yuan covered his forehead with both hands, indicating a headache...

Dealing with a genius scientist like Dr. Einstein is so difficult; you can easily get tricked if you're not careful.

Seele is still the best~

"Just kidding~ Actually, Bronya had something to discuss with you, Mr. Xia Yuan. I just came to deliver a message. I didn't expect to run into Dr. Tesla here."

"Bronya?! Can I refuse?"

Xia Yuan cautiously inquired about Dr. Einstein.

After all, Bronya can't know about what's being broadcast on a loop over the loudspeaker yet.

“I’m sorry, Mr. Xia Yuan, but Bronya actually heard our conversation clearly from the very beginning.”

Aiyin took another communication device out of her pocket.

The communication device in Ai's hand displayed a virtual projection, showing her superior, Bronya.

Xia Yuan immediately felt cold sweat pouring out.

He decided that he would stay far away from Dr. Einstein from now on.

She goes east, and I go west; we absolutely cannot go the same way. She's even more terrifying than my boss, Bronya.

"Ahem... My most respected boss Bronya, may I ask what business you have with me?"

"Is your admiration so great that it's being publicized everywhere by a subordinate using a megaphone?"

"You idiot subordinate, go and retrieve my Houmu Express package, and I'll let you off the hook for what you did this time."

Upon hearing that Bronya had already discovered it... Xia Yuan couldn't help but gasp.

But in the blink of an eye... as long as he helps Bronya retrieve her Houmu Express, will she forgive him?

It's truly a matter of one thought leading to hell, and another to heaven...

"Yes, sir!"

After Bronya's figure disappeared from the virtual projection, Xia Yuan's tense heart finally calmed down completely.

But how did Bronya find out so quickly?

Xia Yuan suddenly thought of someone...

He stared at Dr. Einstein beside him with a hint of hostility.

"Judging from the look in your eyes, suspect Xia Yuan, I can tell that I am in a very dangerous situation right now."

"Since... Aiyin, you've sensed the unusual danger, why don't you leave my tent with Dr. Tesla!"

"Because I wanted to witness what might happen next in the tent, Mr. Xia Yuan, the suspect."

Based on an experiment conducted by a friend of mine, if I continue speaking, there's a 50% chance I'll face retaliation from you, Mr. Xia Yuan, while there's a 50% chance I'll escape safely with Dr. Tesla.
